What would happen if we really took seriously the teaching of Jesus
and took off our masks, stopped hiding, quit pretending, stopped playing a part, and just got real?
Real about the people that we are. Real about our love. Real about our relationship with God.

Getting Real About Life, about Love, and about God

8th Grade Graduation

This weekend I am honored to be a speaker for the Pleasant View R-9 8th grade graduation. I have been thinking about what it is that God would have me say to these young people as the reach this milestone in their lives. It is an exciting time for them. I am sure it is also a time filled with apprehension and anxiety as well. They come to this end with a whole new beginning ahead. They are taking another step into their future.

What would you say to a young person as they were making this transition in their lives? What lasting thing would you want to make sure they heard? What would you want them to know and to take with them as they entered High School? What do you wish someone had said to you?

I would love to hear from you. Maybe, this is your chance to let them know. Maybe I will pass it along. I am just curious about you thoughts and what you might say.
